There are several ways of looking at this announcement:
[1] "We haven't found anything that will prevent people from laughing uproariously when we show them our 'proof' that Ms. Clinton acted illegally."
[2] "We know damn well that we aren't going to find anything, but it's good politics to keep on raking the muck as long as there isn't a Republican President."
[3] "We think that the American people are so stupid that they will think that we are continuing to investigate what we told them we were going to investigate even if we have completely abandoned that issue and moved on to another issue that we know we aren't going to find any evidence of illegality associated with."
and
[4] "As long as we can keep this committee thing running then we can collect some really nice 'per diem' allowances and (if we say that we have to go someplace to 'investigate' we can get some really neat holidays paid for by the taxpayers."
There are probably others but I suspect that those four are likely to cover at least 97% of the ground.

COL Ted Mc There is absolutely no doubt that Hillary Clinton, as well as members of her staff, violated the laws concerning handling of classified information and that they should all be indicted, prosecuted, convicted , and punished. To not do so is a travesty.

SPC Cody Verba There have been multiple posts/strings on RallyPoint about whether Obama is a racist or not, so I really do not want to start another back and forth in this one. All I ill say is that there are multiple examples of his racism in the form of his appointees, his position in such cases as Michael Brown, Treyvon Martin, the BLM movement, praising rioters, failure of his DOJ to prosecute people of color (Black Panthers, Al Sharpton, etc), unjustified/blind support of the Black professor against the police in Beer Gate, and on and on. Race relations in this country have been set back by decades under his Administration, which anybody with any sense can clearly see. What has he done for the Blacks in this country, except to foment racism and divisiveness?Everybody had hope that he would be the "great uniter", but he has proven to be exactly the opposite... and that is what he obviously wanted to do. If you actually think it is coming from the far right "obstructionists", you simply have not been paying attention or your are blind to reality.

Regardless of where any of us stand on the political spectrum, history suggests that even if she were guilty of providing support to ISIS with stacks of evidence and a signed confession, nothing is likely to happen.

We're the fools. 1. Our vote doesn't count and we apparently don't care as its never an election issue. 2. The people we ARE allowed to vote for, are not held accountable.

CPT Jack Durish & PO3 Donald Murphy - Gentlemen; Josef Stalin is REPORTED to have said "Достаточно того, что они знают, что там были выборы. Не важно, как они голосовали - это как подсчет голосов, что имеет важное значение." ("It is enough that they know that there was an election. It isn't important how they voted - it's how the votes are counted that is important.). There is no actual confirmation that he did say it.
HOWEVER, the quote is not quite correct in general application.
In general application the quote would be more accurate if it were "Sufficit ut cognoscant quia non est electio. Multum vacare debet electionem admittatur pulchram apertum et sincerum. Non refert quam condi - si tamen nominationes ad coercendas." ("It is enough that they know that there was an election. That election should be widely admitted to be free, fair, open, and honest. It isn't important how they voted - PROVIDED that we get to control the nominations.") - Unknown Roman Patrician (attributed).
